Been In My Mind

All of my life I've been living inside
A mind that I tried to hide
(Thinking that it's alright)
Containing whatever I like
To a place only I can find
And I do my best to ignore the lies
I tell myself every night
They twist me into fight or flight
Desperate to make these worlds collide

The world around me seems so faceless
Chasing vices leaves life vacant
I'm afraid my time is wasted
My surroundings slowly breaking

All of my life was in my mind
(Thinking that it's alright)
And I want out

I have been in my mind for too long
Wasting my time all along
I've been chasing down the dawn
Hoping to find where I belong
And I want out

I don't know why I've been in my mind
But it's been a long time
(Thinking that it's alright)
Thinking back to all my
Decisions of a lifetime
Cause I don't want to fly a little too high
Thinking that it's alright
The brightest light is blinding my eyes
I'm free falling scared of these heights

Now I don't want to be someone vacant
But it feels like everything inside was taken
Hollowed out and half alive
Escape in hopes we can survive

I don't know why I've been in my mind
(Thinking that it's alright)
But I want out

I have been in my mind for too long
Wasting my time all alone
I've chasing down the dawn
Hoping to find where I belong
(and I want out)

I made a mess of my mind once
And got lost inside
I want to go back to who I was
